DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The embodiments are described hereinafter in accompany with drawings. However, the embodiments of the present application are not to limit the condition(s), the application(s), or the mythology. The embodiments can be referred, exchanged, incorporated, collocated, coordinated except they are conflicted, incompatible, or hard to be put into practice together. Moreover, the drawing(s) are generally illustrated in simplified version(s). The element(s), quantities, shape(s), or other characteristic(s) are not to limit the specific application.

Firstly, referring to FIG. 1A, a multi-dimensional light-emitting device 10 in accordance with one embodiment of the present application is illustrated. The multi-dimensional light-emitting device 10 can be electrically connected to a standardized power supply system 1 such as power line, network, telephone line, and industrial power supply. The multi-dimensional light-emitting device 10 includes conductive lines 10 a, electrodes 10 b, a carrier 12, a first optoelectronic element 14, second optoelectronic elements 16, and heat dissipation structures 18. As shown in FIG. 1B, the carrier 12 can be partitioned into a first region 12 a and four second regions 12 b. The four second regions 12 b surround the first region 12 a in a configuration such as random distribution, mirror symmetry, rotational symmetry, and radial symmetry.

The first optoelectronic element 14 includes a blue light-emitting diode array 14 a and a first wavelength converter 14 b. The blue light-emitting diode array 14 a includes several blue light-emitting diodes (not shown). The blue light-emitting diodes are arranged in a multi-dimensional configuration such as zigzag type, crossing type, and/or U type. The blue light-emitting diodes can be electrically connected with each other in series, parallel, or a combination thereof. By the multi-dimensional configuration, the light-emitting diode array 14 a has an operation voltage and/or an operation current being higher than a single chip. The array 14 a can be directly connected to the standardized power supply system 1, or connected to the standardized power supply system 1 in combination with a second optoelectronic element 16. Specifically, one or more light-emitting diode array 14 a, which are connected with each other in series, can be optionally connected to the second optoelectronic element 16, a resister, a capacitor, and/or an inductor in series, parallel, or a combination of series and parallel, and then connected to the standardized power supply system 1. For example, the standardized power supply system 1 can provide a voltage of X volt. One light-emitting diode array 14 a can accept a voltage equal to or near X//N volt (N is any integer). Provided N light-emitting diode arrays 14 a are connected in series, the arrays can work at X volt.

The blue light-emitting diode array 14 a can be arranged on the first region 12 a of the carrier 12 through a suitable connecting material (not shown). The first wavelength material 14 b is arranged to overlay the blue light-emitting diode array 14 a. Preferably, the first wavelength converter 14 b is a yellow wavelength converter such as a yellow phosphor, a yellow dye, and/or a yellow filter. The yellow phosphor is such as YAG, TAG, nitride phosphor, and silicate phosphor.

In the present embodiment, at least one of the four second optoelectronic elements 16 in FIG. 1A, which includes a red light-emitting diode array (i.e. including several red light-emitting diode chips) or a red light-emitting diode chip, is arranged on the second region 12 b of the carrier 12 by a suitable connecting material (not shown). Preferably, to prevent the red light-emitting diode array from absorbing the light from the blue light-emitting diode array 14 a or being deteriorated by the heat from the blue light-emitting diode array 14 a, the blue light-emitting diode array 14 a and the red light-emitting diode array are separated from each other by a suitable distance. The distance is greater than 0.5 mm, 1 mm, 2.0 mm, 3.0 mm, 4.0 mm, 5.0 mm, 1.0 cm, 2.0 cm, 3.0 cm, 4.0 cm, or 5.0 cm. Furthermore, the red light-emitting diode array or chip can be operated under a voltage smaller than, equal to, close to, or greater than that of the blue light-emitting diode array 14 a.

The standardized power supply system 1 can be electrically connected to each of the electrodes 10 b of the multi-dimensional light-emitting device 10. As shown in FIG. 1A, the electrodes 10 b, the first optoelectronic element 14, and the second optoelectronic elements 16 are electrically connected with each other by several conductive lines 10 a. The standardized power supply system 1 can make the first optoelectronic element 14 and each of the second optoelectronic elements 16 to emit a first light and a second light respectively in order to produce a mixed light. The mixed light has a color temperature equivalent to a candlelight of 1500K-2500K, an incandescent lamp of 2500K-3500K, a high intensity discharge lamp of 4500K-5000K, and/or a flash light of 5500K-5600K. The color temperature of less than 3300K is usually called as “warm white”; the color temperature between 3300K and 5300K is usually called as “cool white”; the color temperature of more than 5300K is usually called as “cool color light”. A variety of color temperatures in the mixed light can be achieved by using the design principle illustrated in the embodiments of the present application.

In comparison with the blue light-emitting diode, the efficiency of the red light-emitting diode remarkably decreases when the temperature increases. As shown in FIG. 1A, to lower the temperature of the red light-emitting diode array or chip, a heat dissipation structure 18 is further arranged under the red light-emitting diode array or chip of the second optoelectronic element 16 in accordance with one embodiment of the present application. The heat dissipation structure 18 is such as fin(s), fan(s), heat pipe(s), and liquid cooler, high thermal conductivity material bulk(s), porous material(s), and a combination thereof.

To display the mixed light in a uniform color and/or high color rendering, the first optoelectronic element 14 and the second optoelectronic element 16 can be configured such that each element meets its electrical property (such as energy efficiency, and power factor), optical property (such as light field, light intensity, hot/cold factor), and/or geometric shape. In accordance with an embodiment of the present application, a light-emitting area ratio of the first optoelectronic element 14 to all second optoelectronic elements 16 is between 2:1 to 5:1 on the carrier 12. However, the light-emitting area ratio of a single first optoelectronic element 14 to a single second optoelectronic element 16 is not limited to the aforementioned range. In another embodiment of the present application, a power ratio of the first optoelectronic element 14 to all second optoelectronic elements 16 is between 2 and 5, however, the ratio of a single first optoelectronic element 14 to a single second optoelectronic element 16 is not limited to the aforementioned range. In addition, provided one element can deteriorate another element by its light, heat, magnetic field, and/or electric field, the distance between the elements or the layout of elements is preferably configured to reduce or remove the deterioration. For example, the material with low energy band gap can absorb high energy light. The material with high hot/cold factor has lower light-emitting efficiency at high temperature. A counter magnetic field hinders the combination of electrons and holes. In one embodiment of the present application, for example, the neighboring elements in the multi-dimensional light-emitting device 10 are separated from each other by a distance or tilted with each other in an angle such that there is no or least overlap between the elements' light fields, which renders a uniform color distribution.

In an embodiment, the first optoelectronic element 14 and the second optoelectronic element 16 are electrically connected to the standardized power supply system 1 in series. The blue light-emitting diode array 14 a, and the red light-emitting diode array or chip, therefore, can be operated at high voltage and low current (in comparison with non-light-emitting diode array), such that less energy loses during the energy transmission and conversion, and a simple circuit between the standardized power supply system 1 and the multi-dimensional light-emitting device can be used. The elements of the present application can be also connected in parallel or a combination of series and parallel.

In another embodiment, the material of the carrier 12 can be a single crystal, a poly crystal, or non-crystal, such as glass, sapphire, SiC, GaP, GAAsP, ZnSe, ZnS, AmSSe, and AlN.

Moreover, in the first optoelectronic element 14, gallium nitride (GaN) series chips can be used in the blue light-emitting diode array 14 a to emit blue light with a wavelength of 400 nm-530 nm (or 455nm-465 nm). A yellow phosphor, such as yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG), can be used as the first wavelength converter 14 b. In another embodiment, other yellow phosphors (such as TAG, nitride series phosphor, silicate series phosphor), fluorescent plate, semiconductor, and dye can also be used. In the second optoelectronic element 16, AlGaInP series chip can be used in the red light-emitting diode array to emit red light with a wavelength of 600 nm-750 nm (or 620 nm-625nm). The material of the heat dissipation structure can be selected from high conductivity materials such as copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), and silicon (Si). The heat dissipation structure can also be made of ceramic material(s). However, the aforementioned materials are only illustrative, and not to limit the scope of the present invention. The color light can have various color temperature by adjusting the quantity or the light intensity of the blue light-emitting diode array 14 a, the thickness or the concentration of the wavelength converter, and/or the mixture ratio of the blue light to the red light.

Referring to FIG. 2, a multi-dimensional light-emitting device in accordance with a further embodiment of the present application is disclosed. A multi-dimensional light-emitting device 20 is electrically connected to a standardized power supply system 2. The multi-dimensional light-emitting device 20 includes a carrier 22, a first optoelectronic element 24, and second optoelectronic elements 26. The first optoelectronic element 24 includes a blue light-emitting array 24 a and a first wavelength converter 24 b. The second optoelectronic element 26 includes a blue light-emitting array 26 a and a second wavelength converter 26 b. The first wavelength converter 24 b includes one yellow wavelength converter. The second wavelength converter 26 b includes one red wavelength converter.

In addition, in the present embodiment, the first wavelength converter 24 b and the second wavelength converter 26 b can be arranged on separate elements, or stacked on the same element. Both of the first optoelectronic element 24 and the second optoelectronic element 26 are blue light-emitting diode arrays, therefore, light absorption among the elements can be prevented. Moreover, the distance between the blue light-emitting diode arrays of the optoelectronic elements can be as short as possible in order to reduce the packaging area.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a multi-dimensional light-emitting device 30 in accordance with an embodiment of the present application.

The multi-dimensional light-emitting device 30 in the present embodiment is also electrically connected to a standardized power supply system 3. The multi-dimensional light-emitting device 30 includes conductive lines 30 a, two electrodes 30 b, a carrier 32, a first optoelectronic element 34, and four second optoelectronic elements 36.

In detail, a blue light-emitting diode array is used to excite the first wavelength converter 34 b of a red phosphor in the first optoelectronic element 34 of the present embodiment. A green light-emitting diode array having several green light-emitting diode chips is used in the second optoelectronic element 36. However, a single green light-emitting diode chip may be used in other embodiments.

The standardized power supply system 3 is electrically connected to the multi-dimensional light-emitting device 30 and provides a standardized voltage and/or current. The first optoelectronic element 34 and the second optoelectronic element 36 can emit a first light and a second light. The first light can be mixed with the second light to produce a mixed light. The mixed light can include a blue light, a red light, and a green light. Various color lights, such as warm white, cool white, and other color light which can be generated by a mixture of primary colors, can be produced by mixing the three colors in different proportion. Furthermore, the percentage of the blue light in the mixed light can be close to 0, less than 5%, or less than 1%, if most or all of the blue light is used in generating red light.

FIG. 4 illustrates a multi-dimensional light-emitting device 40 in accordance with another embodiment of the present application. The multi-dimensional light-emitting device 40 is electrically connected to a standardized power supply system 4. In the present embodiment, a blue light-emitting diode array 42 a is used to excite a first wavelength converter 42 b of a red phosphor to generate a first light in the first optoelectronic element 42. In the second optoelectronic element 44, a blue light-emitting diode array 44 a is used to excite a green wavelength converter 44 b positioned above to generate a second light which can be mixed with the first light into a mixed light. In such an arrangement, various visible lights can be produced by mixing the blue light, red light, and green light in different proportions. However, the blue light may be hardly perceivable in the mixed light, if most or all of the blue light is used to generate the red light and the green light.

In the present embodiment, the first wavelength converter 42 b and the second wavelength converter 44 b can be arranged on separate elements, or stacked on the same element. Both of the first optoelectronic element 42 and the second optoelectronic element 44 are blue light-emitting diode arrays, therefore, light absorption among the elements can be prevented. Moreover, the distance between the blue light-emitting diode arrays of the optoelectronic elements can be as short as possible in order to reduce the packaging area.

In the aforementioned embodiments, provided the blue light-emitting diode arrays are used in the first region and the second region, the distance between the first region and the second region can be reduced due to the low absorption rate of the blue light-emitting diode when being exposed to other wavelength(s), such as those in the two aforementioned embodiments. However, provided different color light-emitting diode arrays, such as blue and red light-emitting diodes, or blue and green light-emitting diodes, are used in the first region and the second region, a longer distance is preferable, because the red light-emitting diode or the green light-emitting diode has a higher absorption rate to other wavelength. Besides, the light-emitting diode array in the second region may be replaced by a single chip.

FIG. 5A illustrates a multi-dimensional light-emitting device 50 in accordance with a further embodiment of the present application. The multi-dimensional light-emitting device 50 is electrically connected to a standardized power supply system (not shown). The multi-dimensional light-emitting device includes a carrier 52, a blue light-emitting diode array 54, a first wavelength converter 56, and four second wavelength converters 58.

The blue light-emitting diode array 54 is arranged on the carrier 52 and has several blue light-emitting diode chips (not shown). The several blue light-emitting diode chips are electrically connected with each other in series, parallel, or a multi-dimensional configuration of series and parallel connections. As shown in FIG. 5B, the blue light-emitting diode array 54 has a central area 54 a and four peripheral areas 54 b surrounding the central area 54 a. As shown in FIG. 5A, the first wavelength converter 56 is overlaid on the central area 54 s; the four second wavelength converter 58 are respectively overlaid on the four peripheral areas 54 b.

In the present embodiment, the material selections and the practices of the carrier 52, the blue light-emitting diode array 54, the first wavelength converter 52 a, and the second wavelength converter 52 a can be referred to the aforementioned descriptions.

The standardized power supply system is electrically connected to the blue light-emitting diode array 54. A first light and a second light can be respectively generated from the central area 54 a and the peripheral areas 54 b of the blue light-emitting diodes array 54. The first light can be mixed with the second light to produce a mixed light.

FIG. 6A illustrates a multi-dimensional light-emitting device 60 in accordance with a further embodiment of the present application. The multi-dimensional light-emitting device 60 is electrically connected to a standardized power supply system 6. The multi-dimensional light-emitting device 60 includes conductive lines 60 a, two electrodes 60 b, a carrier 62, four first optoelectronic elements 64, a second optoelectronic element 66, and a heat dissipation structure 68. As shown in FIG. 6B, the carrier 62 has four first regions 62 a and a second region 62 b. The first regions 62 a surround the second region 62 b.

Referring to FIGS. 6A and 6B, each first optoelectronic element 64 includes a blue light-emitting diode array 64 a (in the present application, all or part of the blue light-emitting diode array can be replaced by a blue light-emitting diode chip), and a first wavelength converter 64 b. The blue light-emitting diode array 64 a includes several blue light-emitting diode chips (not shown). The blue light-emitting diode chips can sustain a forward voltage and/or a current higher than that of a single semiconductor light-emitting epitaxial structure by connecting with each other in a multi-dimensional configuration (such as zigzag type, crossing type, and U type) of series, parallel, or a combination of series and parallel. Four of the blue light-emitting diode arrays 64 a are mounted on the four first regions 62 a of the carrier 62 by a mounting material (not shown). The first wavelength converter 64 b is overlaid on the blue light-emitting diode array 64 a. The first wavelength converter 64 b can emit light of yellow, red, or green.

As shown in FIG. 6A, the second optoelectronic element 66 in the present embodiment includes a red light-emitting diode array (or a single red light-emitting diode chip) arranged on the second region 62 b of the carrier 62. The blue light-emitting diode array 64 a is separated from the red light-emitting diode array by a suitable distance, such that the red light-emitting diode array is prevented from absorbing the light from the blue light-emitting diode array 64 a. In addition, provided the blue light-emitting diode array, the red light-emitting diode array, or both are arranged in a lower structure which can obstruct the light transmission, or have a larger margin which can increase a distance between two neighboring light-emitting diode arrays, or have an obstructing structure between the blue and red light-emitting diode arrays. For example, a light obstructer 69 can prevent the red light-emitting diode array from absorbing the light from the blue light-emitting diode array 64 a.

The standardized power supply system (not shown) can be electrically connected to each of electrodes 60 b of the multi-dimensional light-emitting device 60. As shown in FIG. 6A, the electrode(s) 60 b, the first optoelectronic element(s) 64, and the second optoelectronic element(s) 66 are series-connected by conductive lines 60 a. The first optoelectronic element(s) 64 and the second optoelectronic element(s) 66 can respectively emit a first light and a second light. The two lights can be mixed into a mixed light. Preferably, the color temperature of the mixed light is ranged between 2500K and 3800K, more preferably, the color temperature is about 3000K or in a range of warm white.

The luminous efficiency of the red light-emitting diode apparently decays more when the temperature rises. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6A, a heat dissipation structure 68, which can cool the red light-emitting diode array, is arranged under the red light-emitting diode array, i.e. between the second optoelectronic element 66 and the carrier 62, such that the issue of the power decaying at high temperature can be relieved. The heat dissipation structure 68 is such as fin(s), fan(s), heat pipe(s), liquid cooler(s), high conductivity material(s), and porous material(s). Besides, the heat dissipation structure 68 can be optionally arranged on a position higher than a blue light-emitting diode array 64 a, such that, when an optical lens is arranged on the multi-dimensional light-emitting device 60, more light can be extracted from the second optoelectronic element 66 which is positioned near an optical axis of the optical lens but not in the periphery of the multi-dimensional light-emitting device 60 (such as in the embodiments of FIGS. 1A-4). The first wavelength converter 64 b can include particle(s) which can scatter light (such as phosphors, scattering particles). In this case, even though the first optoelectronic elements 64 are arranged on the periphery of the multi-dimensional light-emitting device 60, the light can still be extracted outwards by the particles.

To produce light having uniform color and/or good rendering, the first optoelectronic element(s) 64 and the second optoelectronic element 66 are arranged on the carrier 62 by a light-emitting area ratio of 2:1-5:1 (the related drawings are only for illustrative, but not to reflect the actual scale.). Optionally, in one embodiment, the power ratio of blue light of the first optoelectronic element(s) 64 to the red light of the second optoelectronic element(s) 66 is ranged between 2 and 5.

In one embodiment, the first optoelectronic element 64 and the second optoelectronic element 66 are electrically connected to the standardized power supply system in series, such that the blue light-emitting diode array 64 a and the red light-emitting diode array can be operated at a high voltage and a low current, which can bring to a low energy consumption operation (in comparison with non-light-emitting diode array) and a simple circuit between the standardized power supply system and the multi-dimensional light-emitting device. However, the elements in the application can also be connected in parallel or a combination of series and parallel.

FIG. 6C illustrates a multi-dimensional light-emitting device 60 in accordance with another embodiment of the present application. As described above, the luminous efficiency of the multi-dimensional light-emitting device 60 may decrease, if the material of the second optoelectronic element 66 absorbs the light from the first optoelectronic element 64. In the present embodiment, the carrier 62 has a lower structure 70 in which the second optoelectronic element 66 is positioned. The lower structure 70 can obstruct light moving between the first optoelectronic element 64 and the second optoelectronic element 66, such that the second optoelectronic element 66 has lower possibility of absorbing the light from the first optoelectronic element 64. The luminous efficiency of the multi-dimensional light-emitting device is therefore alleviated. The lower structure 70 can be formed to be a one open-ended channel or a multi-open-ended channel, such as a blind hole and a trench.

Furthermore, a reflective layer 71 can be arranged on the lower structure 70. The light from the second optoelectronic element 66 has higher possibility to leave the lower structure 70 after being reflected by the reflective layer 71. In other words, the light from the second optoelectronic element 66 is not easily trapped in the lower structure 70. In addition, a transparent material 72 can be filled into the lower structure 70 to cover the second optoelectronic element 66. The transparent material 72 is transparent to the light from the second optoelectronic element 66 and can protect the second optoelectronic element 66 from being effected by external force, humidity, and/or temperature. The transparent material 72 can be also functioned as an optical lens if it is molded in a specific shape. The optical lens is such as a convex, a concave, and a Fresnel lens.

As shown in FIG. 6D, in another embodiment, a covering structure 73 can be arranged on the first optoelectronic element 64 and the second optoelectronic element 66. The covering structure 73 can protect the element(s) therein. The lights from the first optoelectronic element 64 and the optoelectronic element 66 can be mixed in the covering structure 73. The covering structure 73 is formed of transparent material(s) which can include scattering structure(s), and/or light converting structure(s). A pertinent document can be referred to Taiwan patent application Ser. No. 099141373, and the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference.

As shown in FIG. 6E, a heat insulation structure 74 can be formed between the first optoelectronic element 64 and the second optoelectronic element 66. The first optoelectronic element 64 usually has a temperature coefficient different from the second optoelectronic element 66. For example, as described above, compared with the blue light-emitting diode, the luminous efficiency of the red light-emitting diode apparently decays more when the temperature rises. The heat insulation structure 74 is beneficial to prevent thermal interaction between the optoelectronic elements, especially a heat transporting from a high temperature element to low temperature element. The heat insulation structure 74 can surround one or more elements of the same kind. For example, the heat insulation structure 74 can surround one or more first optoelectronic elements 64, or one or more second optoelectronic elements 66. The heat insulation structure 74 can be arranged in the carrier 62 to thermally separate the first optoelectronic element 64 and the second optoelectronic element 66, as shown in FIG. 6E. However, the heat insulation structure 74 can be also arranged under the optoelectronic element to block the heat from transmitting downwards or transmitted upwards. For example, the heat insulation structure 74 can be arranged between the reflective layer 71 and the carrier 62, or between the optoelectronic element and the carrier 62.

The foregoing description has been directed to the specific embodiments of this invention. It will be apparent; however, that other alternatives and modifications may be made to the embodiments without escaping the spirit and scope of the invention.
